Chemo Hats

Special Features to Look for in a Chemo Hat

When choosing a brimmed hat, it’s easy to focus on style, but other factors are just as important. Consider the following essential features when selecting your sun hat or brimmed hat for outdoor use:

• Comfort
• Functionality
• Sizing

Comfort:

Choose a chemo brimmed hat made of breathable material that is soft on the scalp. If the hat has a hard structure, such as straw or paper yarn hats, ensure it is large enough to wear with a hat liner underneath. A hat approximately 1 cm larger than your actual head size is ideal.

Functionality:

The brim size of a hat is crucial for UV protection. For extended outdoor use, select a hat with a broad, encircling brim. The brim should be wide enough, and the crown deep enough, to cover the face, ears, and back of the neck. Brim width between 5cm to 12cm for extra coverage.  Additionally, while maintaining breathability, the fabric should be layered or thick enough to effectively block UV rays.

Sizing:

A common mistake is guessing head size and assuming any hat will fit. While turbans, beanies, and knitted hats are often stretchable, sun hats usually have thicker sweatbands or padding that reduce flexibility. Many sun hats include adjustable drawstrings or elasticated sweatbands, but the adjustment range can be limited. It’s essential to measure your head size accurately. Visit our Head and Hat Size Guide for more information.

Other Factors to Consider for Chemo Outdoor Hats

Portability and Practicality:

If you plan to travel with your hat, choose one that can be folded and easily stored in a bag or suitcase. Portable hats are convenient for storage and transportation.

Style and Shape:

Hats generally flatter oval face shapes, but for square or round faces, choose a hat with a deep or high crown. On the other hand, hats with deep or high crowns may not suit longer face shapes.
